Trump operates on two simple rules:
Women are just like bears. Each spring, we emerge from a winter-induced torpor state and begin the difficult process of relearning how to act like a (human) lady.
Here’s a step-by-step guide for reentering polite society.
1. Move Slowly
It’s important not to rush when burrowing out from your den of blankets, oversized sweaters, and half-drunk mugs of tea. After all, you haven’t left this comforting soft pile in months, except to urinate and periodically scream out recaps of Survivor: Heroes vs Villains. Try not to trip over the comically large stack of books you swore you’d read this winter, but didn’t.
2. Stretch
Shake off lethargy with a rousing spinal twist. Listen closely as your back pops and cracks like a cartoon skeleton. Can you hear it? That’s your bones singing, “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the Waves. Spring is here!
I was half-listening to a true crime podcast when the ad came on. I perked up when I realized it was for White Lotus branded coffee creamer. It promised something like a luxurious Thai vacation vibe without leaving your house, and I wondered if the ad writers had ever seen White Lotus.
That’s the contradiction of White Lotus, though. It’s a show about terrible people doing shitty things and making their lives worse. It’s also about having exactly one scene per season that makes you say, Holy fuck or I know this is HBO, but I didn’t realize they could show that.
What the White Lotus Thai Iced Coffee Mate collaboration is banking on is that you still wish you had these characters’ lives—as long as you also get to go to Hawaii, Italy, or, in the case of season three, Thailand. Coffee Mate is betting you think you’re different. That you’re sure that if you were as rich as White Lotus characters, you’d be grateful for your wealth and nice to the staff, and wouldn’t need to learn any life lessons by dying an embarrassing death or getting mounted by an old guy.

Our tribe is facing an existential threat. Now is not the time for division. We must work together to protect our future. That’s why, instead of invoking the ten plagues and escaping to the Promised Land, we need to support the Pharaoh, no matter how detrimental he is to our tribe, Egypt, or the whole world.
I know what you’re thinking: The Pharaoh spent his entire life lying and defrauding, how do you know he won’t throw us under the camel when it becomes convenient? Well, he might be a greedy supervillain who cares about nothing but himself, but he was friendly to a few token tribe members, so just ignore the other stuff.
